£28.39
Why Choose the IMO B10R2040-300 Residual Current Device?
The IMO B10R2040-300 is a reliable Type AC Residual Current Device (RCD/RCCB) designed to protect single-phase electrical installations against earth leakage faults. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, it forms part of the trusted B10R RCCB series, providing dependable protection for industrial control panels, commercial installations and electrical distribution systems.
The device continuously monitors the current flowing through the live and neutral conductors. When an earth leakage current exceeds the rated residual operating current, the RCD disconnects the electrical supply, helping protect equipment and reducing the risk of electrical faults. Its 300 mA trip sensitivity makes it particularly suitable for fire protection and equipment protection applications rather than additional personal protection.
With a 40 A rated current, 300 mA residual operating current, 1 Pole + Neutral configuration and 230 V AC operation, the B10R2040-300 offers reliable earth leakage protection together with straightforward DIN rail installation.
Key Advantages
- Reliable Type AC residual current protection for industrial and commercial electrical systems.
- 40 A rated current for higher load circuits.

- DIN rail mounting to EN 60715.
Reliable Earth Leakage Protection
Residual current devices compare the current flowing through the live conductor with the current returning through the neutral conductor. When an imbalance caused by an earth fault is detected, the device disconnects the electrical supply to help protect equipment and installations from damage caused by leakage currents.
The 300 mA sensitivity of the IMO B10R2040-300 is commonly selected for fire protection and equipment protection applications. The device should always be installed alongside suitable overcurrent protection because it does not provide overload or short-circuit protection.
Typical Applications
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control panels.
- Machinery power distribution.
- Fire protection circuits.
- OEM electrical equipment.
- General earth leakage protection.
